When you have exotic pets and children at home, the only thing you can hope for is that everyone stays safe and gets along.
This video posted by Wonderbot shares how after a dedicated mother put her child to bed, her pet cobras slithered into her baby’s crib. It wasn’t until she heard a loud crash coming from the nursery that she knew something was horribly wrong.
Sarika Patel Michelson was in a loving marriage with her husband Eric. The two happily became parents when they welcomed their adorable daughter named Saanvi.
Prior to starting a family, Sarika worked as a successful illusionist in New York. When she decided to become a mother, she knew she was going to have to give up that line of work, but she refused to abandon her three beloved pet cobras.
These cobras weren’t measly little creatures. They were massive reptiles, but Sarika had trained them and used them in her magic acts since they were little babies, so they felt like just as much a part of her family as her husband and baby girl.
One night, she heard a loud thud come from 16-month-old Saanvi’s nursery. Just as she was getting out of bed to investigate, she heard another disturbing sound.

Just as Eric was getting his baseball bat from another room, Sarika opened Saanvi’s door to discover a masked intruder lying on the floor. Surrounding little Saanvi to protect her were Sarika’s three cobras in all their majestic reptilian glory.
To find out what happened to the intruder that night, and how little Saanvi fared when her mom’s pet cobras slithered in to protect her, watch the full video shared by Wonderbot.
